Thyreus Nitidulus
''Thyreus nitidulus'', commonly known as the neon cuckoo bee, is a parasitic bee of the genus ''Thyreus'', called cuckoo bees. It is a stocky bee, notable for its brilliant metallic blue- and black-banded colors. Originally described by Danish entomologist Johan Christian Fabricius in 1804 as ''Melecta nitidula'' – from a collection in the Aru Islands or northern Australia – it was given its current scientific name ''Thyreus nitidulus'' in 1959 by M. A. Lieftinck. The specific epithet is derived from the diminutive of the Latin adjective ''nitidus'' "shining" (i.e. "little shiny one"). Several subspecies are known - the nominate race ''T. n. nitidulus'' is found across eastern and northern Australia, specifically New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, and the Northern Territory, as well as New Guinea. Other species are found in Southeast Asia. Like all bees, the neon cuckoo bee is covered by furry, branched, flattened hair, which is responsible for both the black an ...

Thyreus Denolii
''Thyreus denolli'' is an African species of Kleptoparasitism, kleptoparisitic bee. It belongs to the tribe Melectini and to the genus ''Thyreus'', the members of which are often referred to as 'Cuckoo bees', due to their Parasitism, parasitic behaviour. It is one of the most distinctive ''Thyreus'' bees in Cape Verde. History The species was first described in 2012, and was named after the Genoese navigator António de Noli, who after being exiled from his home country discovered the Cape Verde Islands around 1456 while he was working for Portugal. ''T. denolii,'' along with the other species of ''Thyreus'' found in Cape Verde, closely resembles the species ''Thyreus hohmanni,'' as well as the more widespread ''Thyreus ramosus''. ''T. hohmanni'' is endemic to the Canary Islands, another macronesian archipelago. It is thus possible that the ''Thyreus'' bees of Cape Verde came from the Canary Islands, and separated into separate species across the Cape Verde islands. Similarly, ...
